I can't quite wrap my head around these numbers... Google announced today that they are seeing an astounding 850,000 activations every single day, and have now passed the 300,000,000 mark. 300 million Android-based devices in the wild, that is some impressive work. 850,000 activations every day though, that's insane.

At last year's Mobile World Congress, Google were chuffed to have more than 150,000 apps on their Android Market. Those numbers today? They've eclipsed 450,000, and have experienced over one billion app downloads per month for a while now. To celebrate these numbers, Google have installed "app pods" into their Android stands at MWC.

Most of the featured apps demonstrate the latest Android innovations, such as Android Beam, which lets you share content like web pages, videos, directions and apps - by just tapping two Android-based phones back-to-back. Google are proud to boast there are over 100-plus Android devices on show at MWC on the conveyer belt bar, which is just a small part of the 800-plus Android devices that Google have launched to-date.
